Reputed top Chicago mobster Rudy Fratto was sentenced to a year and a day in prison for evading taxes on more than $800,000 in income over seven years.
Fratto. 66, had asked for home confinement, which the judge rejected, citing the seriousness of the crime. Fratto could have been sentenced up to 18 months in prison.
By being sentenced to a year and a day, rather than a year, Fratto becomes eligible to receive good time credit and could serve as little as 10 months behind bars.

JUST DO THE TIME AND SHUT THE F*** UP. EVERYONE ELSE DOES IN YOUR WORLD. BE A MAN.
I simply do not understand why Mr. Fratto is being mentioned on this blog. He has never been indentified as being a member of the Outfit! How dare you, sir!
Every time we read something like this it's always a top chief,are there any Indians?
I HOPE FRATTO GETS HIS SALAD TOSSED IN PRISON THATS WHAT HE DESERVES. HE THINKS HE'S A BIG SHOT ON THE STREET,IF YOU REALLY KNOW HIM HE'S A P@@@Y, HE COULD NOT SHAKE A STICK AT SOME OF THE OTHER GUYS OUT THERE.
Question: At the Family Secrets trial, did Nick Calabrese say his nickname was "Nicky Breeze"? I know Frank Calabrese was known as "The Breeze" (derived from the pronounciation of his last name). But was Nick Calabrese known as "Nicky Breeze," too? Did he say that during his testimony?
STEVE WARMBIR RESPONDS: I assume you're referring to a passage in a new book on the Family Secrets case. Unfortunately, I can't take the time to check my notes of the trial, but I have absolutely no recollection of Nick Calabrese ever being referred to as Nicky Breeze.
For shame! How dare everybody! Leave these men alone, please. Leave these men alone, thank you very much.
Everybody mind their own business, and may the Lord continue to guide all of you in mind and deed.
Thank you very much.
I HOPE HE ROTTS IN JAIL I DONT THINK HE CAN DO THE TIME LIKE THE CICERO CREW CAN THAT CECIL TURTLE FACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
